Intended patient population/medical conditions

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA).

GENERAL WARNINGS

• Remove all packaging before using the mask.
• To avoid affecting the safety and quality of therapy, the mask
vents must be kept clear to protect against rebreathing. Regularly
inspect the vents to ensure they are kept clean, undamaged and
clear of blockages.
• The mask is not suitable for patients requiring life support
ventilation.
• The mask must be used under qualified supervision for patients
who are unable to remove the mask by themselves. The mask
may not be suitable for those prone to aspiration.
• The mask should not be used unless the device is turned on. Once
the mask is fitted, ensure the device is blowing air to reduce risk
of rebreathing exhaled air.
• Discontinue using this mask if you have ANY adverse reaction to
the use of the mask, and consult your physician or sleep therapist.
• The mask is not compatible with supplemental oxygen.
• Using a mask may cause tooth, gum or jaw soreness or aggravate
an existing dental condition. If symptoms occur, consult your
physician or dentist.
• As with all masks, some rebreathing may occur at low pressures.
• The mask is not intended to be used simultaneously with
nebulizer medications that are in the air path of the mask/tube.
• The mask must only be used with listed compatible therapy
device(s) and only as recommended by a physician or respiratory
therapist. The AirFit N30 for AirMini requires connection to the
listed compatible systems to provide therapy.
• Refer to your therapy device manual for details on settings and
